Minimally Invasive Assessment of Mental Stress based on Wearable Wireless Physiological Sensors and Multivariate Biosignal Processing

2019

The development of connected health technologies for the continuous monitoring of the psychophysical state of individuals performing daily life activities requires the aggregation of non-intrusive sensors and the availability of methods and algorithms for extracting the relevant physiological information. The present study proposes an integrated approach for the objective assessment of mental stress which combines wirelessly connected low invasive biosensors with multivariate physiological time series analysis. In a group of 18 healthy subjects monitored in a relaxed resting state and during two experimental conditions inducing mental stress and sustained attention (respectively, mental ari…
